general faqs

what is cbd short for?

cbd is the term used for cannabidiol, a naturally occurring chemical compound (also known as a cannabinoid) found in cannabis plants.

is cbd the same as thc?

there’s a lot of confusion when it comes to cbd and thc, especially as the two are closely related. cbd is one of over a hundred cannabinoids which can be found in cannabis plants, including marijuana plants. it’s the thc in marijuana that makes users high when they consume the plant. cbd, on the other hand, is non-psychoactive and does not make users high. while many marijuana strains contain cbd, cbd products are usually extracted from hemp plants which contain high levels of cbd with low levels of thc. legal, hemp-based products contain less than 0.3% thc, meaning they won’t give you any of the effects you’d generally expect from marijuana.

is cbd addictive?

cbd has no physically addictive qualities, meaning you can use as much as you want as regularly as you want without worrying about becoming addicted.

when you stop taking cbd, you won’t experience any withdrawal effects, even if you’ve been taking it for a long time. along with the lack of harmful effects, this makes cbd a very risk-free natural supplement for users.

can you overdose on cbd?

it’s entirely safe to use any amount of cbd without worrying about overdosing.

many studies have even shown that high doses of cbd can be taken without any harmful effects. for instance, in a study on using cbd for social anxiety issued subjects a dose of 600mg of cbd without any side effects. other studies have found that you can even take high doses daily without any issue.

what is the difference between hemp seed oil and hemp oil?

hemp seed oil is derived from hemp seeds – like the ones you put in your smoothies – and they’re mainly used for dietary purposes. think something similar to coconut oil. refined hemp seed oil might also be found in beauty products, as it has been found to have emollient properties.  

hemp oil, what cbd oil is made from, is extracted from the buds of the hemp plant and has nothing to do with the seeds. the hemp buds are the part of the plant that contains the different cannabinoids that affect the human body.

what is the difference between isolate, broad spectrum and full spectrum?

cbd isolate: in scientific terms, an isolate is the purest form of a compound, which is produced by singularly extracting that compound from its environment and isolating it from all other compounds.

with that being said, cbd isolate is the purest form of cbd, which is produced by removing all other compounds found in the plant including terpenes, flavonoids, plant parts, and other cannabinoids.

full spectrum cbd: full spectrum cbd is an extract that contains all compounds found naturally occurring in the plant, including terpenes, essential oils, and other cannabinoids.

broad spectrum cbd: broad spectrum cbd is a bit of a mix between full spectrum cbd and cbd isolate. like full spectrum cbd, the other compounds found within the plant are preserved in the extract; however, like cbd isolate, thc is completely removed.
